Blake vs Murray in Queen's Club Final; Roddick Hurt


Andy Roddick retired from his semifinal match at the Queen's Club grass court warm-up against fellow American James Blake, who will face British citizen Andy Murray in the final. Roddick injured his ankle after he had successfully retrieved a lob from Blake and was walking in the back of the court when the freak accident occurred. The former #1 says that he does not think the injury is too serious and should not negatively impact his chances at Wimbledon, which starts June 22nd.

Murray defeated Juan Carlos Ferrero 6-2 6-4 and could become the first British man to win the Queen's Club tournament in 71 years if he beats James Blake, who reminded the British press that they should be rooting for him as well--Blake's mother is a British citizen.
